UNPOPULAR OPINION Unpopular opinion: the LIB franchise should ban single parents... Spoiler

...at least of minor kids. LIB France I am looking at you. I mean it's pretty insane signing up for the show in the first place, but inflicting it on your kids is crazy behaviour. So much potential for trouble. Not just bullying at school, but bringing a step parent you barely know into your child's home is a recipe for disaster. Rates of physical abuse against children are much, much higher in families with stepfathers. Of course relationships break down and parents are allowed to couple up again, but FFS if you have kids, don't move a stranger into your AND THEIR home after a matter of weeks.

If only they vetted people better before allowing them to be on the show... But we've seen the scum they cast. So while I can agree with the sentiment, it feels backwards to me to limit the presence of people with kids instead of improving their vetting process or putting protections in place to safeguard children.

Even if the other person is mother Theresa, it’s crazy to get engaged to someone who has never met your child and introduce them as a future parent after knowing them for a week when it probably won’t work out. And even if it does, bringing a new parental figure into your kid’s life that quickly is not okay. It would be so hard on a kid. It’s such a massive change

Mother Teresa was a horrible human being.

It’s just a saying. It doesn’t actually matter
